Hi Deependra,
This tutorial has a lot of good information in it, so great work there.
It sounds like you're already aware of the need for it to be more
consistent with our writing guidelines, such as eliminating the first
person use of "I" throughout. I see your account has a completed CLA,
so if you haven't already, just request "cvsdocs" membership and we can
get you CVS access. I'll put you on the access list for the appropriate
module so you can continue work there as desired.
You can port your edits to the existing XML, once you've got some
rudimentary DocBook from the OpenOffice.org converter -- or however you
intend to convert to XML -- but please do not import the ODT file
itself. If you need any help with the DocBook or CVS, feel free to ask
questions here or at IRC #fedora-docs anytime.
You might find the Documentation Guide useful. There is a relatively
fresh version available now:
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/documentation-guide/
If you find omissions or problems, please Bugzilla them since I am
actively working on that Guide lately. The style guidelines are
available on the Wiki for your reference too. Again, we welcome any
questions!
